Prelude to the Great Escape
Uploaded: March 09, 2010

Another scanned and "doctored" image from a resurrected old photo album. The stroller baby is the eldest step grandchild who was not yet a year old in this shot from circa 1985. The dogs flanking him are the same two from yesterday's balcony shot.
----------
Less than two years later, we were babysitting this fellow while his parents were away for a long weekend in Florida. The boy, on Sunday, had been checking out the lock mechanisms on the sliding doors leading to our back deck.
---
Monday morning, while I was at work, and his granddad was in another room--the boy and his accomplices escaped and disappeared.
------
Police finally found them--all three sitting on the grassy median in the middle of busy U.S. Hightway #1.
-----
Cloned some extraneous stuff out, and used the new TOPAZ ADJUST 4 Dark Charcoal filter.
